TSX, NYSE:STN
Stantec, a global leader in sustainable design and
engineering, has been selected as the Program Management Consultant
(PMC) for the Iona Island Wastewater Treatment Plant (IIWWTP)
Projects in Vancouver, British Columbia. The $9.9 billion (CAD)
multi-year program includes construction of a new tertiary
treatment facility and a range of ecological restoration and
off-site works projects that will improve the connection between
infrastructure, the community, and the environment.
The IIWWTP Projects are the largest capital
program ever undertaken by Metro Vancouver—a federation of 23
municipalities, one electoral area, and one treaty First Nation
that collaboratively plans for and delivers regional-scale
services. As the selected PMC, Stantec will provide a
multi-disciplinary team of resources to deliver a broad range of
program management and technical support services. The Stantec team
will integrate with Metro Vancouver staff, working together
collaboratively to manage the development and implementation of the
Program.
“It’s a privilege to help deliver such a
transformational project with Metro Vancouver,” says Ryan Roberts,
Stantec’s North American Water Business Leader. “Our local and
global experts have extensive experience delivering major,
multi-year wastewater programs that will work in partnership to
achieve Metro Vancouver’s safety, schedule, budget, and quality
objectives for this critical program. This program will be a
shining example for large water infrastructure programs for
communities around the world.”
The IIWWTP will be designed with consideration of
local First Nations and community stakeholders and will increase
the level of treatment to improve both water quality and the
surrounding marine environment. With a focus on recovering
sustainable energy from wastewater, it will integrate with
surrounding ecological restoration efforts and provide economic
opportunities for First Nation entities. The project also aims to
improve seismic resiliency to withstand earthquakes, combat
potential sea level rise, and mitigate other anticipated impacts a
changing climate may have on the facility throughout the 21st
century.
As PMC, Stantec will collaborate with Metro
Vancouver to provide a variety of management and technical
functions. These include program mobilization, program management,
cost and schedule control, design management and technical
integration, construction administration, permitting and approvals
support, communications and engagement support, and commissioning
and operations integration support. Completion of the IIWWTP
Projects is currently scheduled for 2038 with tertiary treatment
commissioning in 2035.
Stantec was selected, in part, due to the firm’s
global experience with projects of similar scale, including the
successful program management of the Capital Regional District
wastewater program in Victoria, British Columbia. A significant
portion of the project team is based in the Vancouver area, and
have worked together on other large-scale wastewater treatment
plant projects such as the Pure Water Program in San Diego,
and the San Jose-Santa Clara Regional Wastewater Facility Capital
Improvement Plan.
By viewing all aspects of water as an integrated
system, Stantec is helping to confront global water challenges and
accelerate the pathway to a more sustainable, reliable, and
affordable future that provides improved water, energy, and
infrastructure solutions. Learn more at stantec.com/water.
